Mike Frey, a self-described “concerned Minnesotan father and husband,” on Tuesday testified before a Minnesota state House committee hearing on a proposed same-sex marriage bill, and offered a jaw-dropping, graphic lesson in anal sex, concluding that same-sex marriage would lead to the spread of AIDS, resulting in a “health risk to the society at large.”
Frey falsely claimed that the vagina has a “barrier … of a cellular tissue that doesn’t allow the sperm … to penetrate the blood flow.”
Watch:
Frey’s “facts,” however, are inaccurate and dangerous:
According to the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta, HIV is a significant problem for women. In 2011, women and adolescent girls ages 13 and older accounted for 21 percent of the estimated 49,273 diagnoses of HIV infection in the United States; heterosexual contact accounted for 86 percent of diagnosed infections.
The Minnesota state legislature on Tuesday began formal consideration of a bill to legalize same-sex marriage. Votes in House and Senate committees were expected later in the day, but final legislative action could still be months away as lawmakers deal with the state budget first.

and how many mistresses does he have??? HMMMM?
BAHAHAHAHAHA WHAT
Moron
pig
If he really thought about it he would realize how stupid this comment is. everyone knows married people have less sex……lol
Pathetic people… everywhere
douche
This man has no idea what HIV is!
WHOA, what a nut….
Another pompous male white know-nothing douchebag
Another hatemonger
Screw this prick. He’s pissed that his wife only let’s him in through the backdoor on his birthday. If ever.
Dafuq did I just watch?
Did anyone bother to educate this guy to the fact that PEOPLE, be they straight, gay, bi, etc, have sex…married or not?
Good gawd, did he actually do any research before making himself look like an ass??
smh
AIDS does not only affect same-sex relationships. anyone can get AIDS. not just same-sex couples.
Great, this is all we need, the spread of more ignorance and fear.
Apparently, this guy had a bad experience with his male lover so he wants to be a bitch about this.
omg does he not know that HIV/AIDS is a genderless desease? how can he state those lies.
Seriously…where do they find these people?
Well since 40% of Heterosexual couples spread HIV/AIDS, wouldn’t that mean we should abolish opposite-sex marriage?
How stupid can this guy be?
I wonder if he realizes that goes for oral/anal sex in heterosexual people as well.. as far as sodomy is concerned. — I also wonder, if any one does their research, to know that AIDS highest carriers/transmitters are Heterosexual African-American Males.
hahahahahahaha!!!
some people need to learn to read and think for them selves
I don’t even know where to start. One, screw you for equaling all gays have AIDS!! Why then are African American women one of the populations with one of the fastest growing cases? And how does that even begin to cover Lesbians?!? And I feel bad for his wife when he finally gets shoved out of the closet….
So if it weren’t for same sex marriage Ryan White would still be alive and uninfected?And how is it that women get gay related immune disease a-hole?
this man looks likes hes taken a few poles himself . these idiots will try and say anything now that they seem to be losing the battle all over
what an idiot, a classic ass hole
Where did they find this nut job? Oh forgot, in Minnesota.
Wait, what?
parents, talk with your kids…
what an IDIOT!!
Well then he shouldn’t have sex with men who are positive if he is concerned.
i cnat believe they are letting him testify, the people that let him testify need to learn the facts. I guess we need to testify that straight marriage breeds ignornace
I swear he said aids is created by sperm in the colon? Did he?
Poor children…
He needs to understand no one will put a dick in his ass forceably, he will have to pay for it just like always
Someone needs to school HIM! Unprotected sex & using dirty needles & unscreened blood transfusions spread AIDS. Not same gender couples getting married! D’oh!
Father and husband you’re not really that ignorant are you? Do you really believe anal sex causes AIDS? Do you understand heterosexual couples (not all) engage in anal and oral sex? Come on people!
You couldn’t drag a needle out of his ass with a tractor! What an idiot!
His punishment…..lol never being able to live the brief moment in time down..He will forever be marked by that statement.
and what about IGNORANCE. That’s scary..
What are we back in the 80′s?!?!?!?!
So, since he’s “just a concerned father and husband worried about health issues”, will he also be against anal sex between heterosexual couples. I mean, if it’s a genuine concern for the health risk of the people, he’d also be concerned with the health risk of heterosexual anal doers as well, right? Unless the sperm can differentiate between a male and females behind.
He can testify whatever he wants, all he’s doing is making himself look like a jackass :)
so dude is saying that str8 couples dont have anal sex? wow what world is he living in…crazy
Some sheltered suburb straight out of the “AIDS Epidemic” early ’80s called, they want their idiot back.
He gave money to Mrs. Bachmann and was a patient of Mr. Bachmann’s.
I can’t decide what’s more pathetic; that he believes what he’s saying or that others do.
this man’s ignorance and stupidity amazes me. And who gave him the platform to spout such utter rubbish!?!?
So what we do? The Bible says is a SIN to Pull Out!!!
He’s an idiot!
oh god get a grip will ya !!!! any kind of sex can spread hiv/aids if one of the partners is infected !!! der my god what did u get taught at school or by your parents !!!!!
OMG dude come out from under the rocks, that’s so much BS!
Ignorant just ignorant
He really should only worry about himself, I think being an asshole might ruin his marriage.
um monogomy tends not to spread stds
What an idiot.
Wow…I’m..surprised
Love his details ….he must be speaking thru experience …damn he sure is a freaking idiot …
?
he was terrible! the woman chewing gum during a televised meeting shows, it isn’t just this guy that’s a moron.
this just another stupid statement
His statement made perfect sense. How ever the spread of the disease by marriage is falls cause if u follow the ideals of marriage each sir would have his significant other instead of multiple partners. Further this is not proof we should ban gay marriage its proof that the discussion of safe sex should be amplifed.
Why oh why doesn’t ignorance cut their lives short!
Is he a top? or a bottom?
Ughhhhhhh people like this make everyone in Minnesota bad. I’m sorry, I promise we aren’t all this stupid.
Never mind wrong side, he’s in the wrong debate in the wrong decade of the wrong century
Hey Chris, don’t put all Minnesotans in the same class as this dousche bag.
What can I say. I’d call him as dumb as a post except I don’t want to insult the post.
I’m concerned about your mental prowess sir. Jackass.
Being in a monogamous committed relationship, would decrease the risk of AIDs, dumbass.
There are people around the world who have HIV or aids and yet they are still alive since the 1980′s when it first came to light in 1985 and yet this muppet is blaming the gay community for this even s8 people can catch it
hahahahahahahahahahahaha… wait… hold on… need to breathe…. hahahahahahaahahahah.
Where do they find these stupid people?
What an Idiot! And I love straight men’s fascination with anal sex! Truly fascinating. lol
Redeeeeeming. Former GOP rep, tearfully regrets her vote on DOMA http://www.advocate.com/politics/marriage-equality/2013/03/12/watch-minn-republican-tears-over-regret-doma-vote
I would bet that smae sex partners use protection a lot more than heterosexuals. The percenatasge of AIDs is rising inwomen!!!
Wow! He’s been thinking ALOT about gay sex
So – you commit yourself to one person and that will spread AIDS? WOW! That’s where it came from – marriage!
So wait, is he saying that every woman that has HIV/AIDS acquired it through anal sex or oral sex? -_-
His argument is that folks with AIDS would spread things like the flu, cold, and AIDS/HIV because they have a compromised immune system to others around them. Here is a news flash, The spread comes from closeted husbands that cheat on their wives with other men. This is largely dude to bigoted assholoes like him that keep those men afraid and in the closet.
Fascist.
Only thing to do is laugh.
Dude us an idiot. Monogomy doesn’t spread HIV/ aids
I just lost 20 IQ points listening to that dumb sack spew garbage. Sperm in the butt causes AIDS? WTF
Dude drop dead Mr.Mike Frey asshole and all the other bigot christian’s too.
omg i heard it all like there not having sex anyway
Lmfao he is hilarious
i hope his incurable ignorance is terminal
a true idiot that has NO IDEA of what he is talking about!! hmm.. i wonder if he has a degree in medicine? prob not!!
So legalizing Same Sex Marriage, which will actually promote MONOGAMY among the Gay Community will some how increase the spread of HIV and Aids? o.O Yes, cuz that makes so much sense… -.-
WTF is wrong with these people that makes them get up in front of the world and act so ridiculous.
Unbelievable what dreck crawls out if the woodwork
When will homophobes realize that it’s not only Gay and Bisexual men who can get Aids and HIV? -.- ANYONE can get the disease! Also, there are many STRAIGHT people who do anal sex as well. There’s also Gay and Bi Men who do ORAL… Plus, Anal Sex can be done SAFELY if the right cautions are taken -.- Some people are morons…
ignorant
He thinks everyone’s a good Christian and doesn’t have sex before marriage.
“When people get married, they have sex.” Yep…… It’s marriage that is spreading HIV.
lol
I can’t help but wonder why he knows so much about anal intercourse and so little about safe sex. Obviously this man has not done a very thorough job of researching the topics that he chose to discuss. If he had, he might of have known that HIV cannot be spread through causal contact, and that gay men are well versed on the subject of safe sex. From my point of view all this man accomplished was allowing the public to truly see just how uninformed he truly is.
From the state that gave us Michelle Bachmann…
I feel sorry for him, poor man let everyone know how uninformed he is. Get your facts before you pull such stunts! Asshole!
LMFAO!!!! PLEASE!!!!!!
i can’t facepalm hard enough….
moron.
If people in Minnesota believe this idiot then they are a sad bunch of people.
actually it is only the gay community that has taken steps to stop the spread of aids its closet cases like this that spread it without remorse
Are they for real! Where do certain pepole get thier information, what does same-sex mariage have to do with Aids? If the were if front of me i would slap some sence in them!
But if i do that they might cath Aids!!!! Stupid !
Things like get me mad!
How could anybody listen to this guy?
Didn’t listen to it…but I know its just another ignorant bigot spreading more ignorance.
The Horse is Long Gone & the Barn Since Burned, Buster.
How does this man explain the fact that AIDS in Africa is pandemic and is primarily spread through HETEROSEXUAL contact? Apparently, the “barriers” in African vaginal canals are NOT doing their jobs!
Oh my god ! This man has no idea about how aids is spread. He sure doesn’t know how a womans body works. A woman has an enzyme barrier ? WTF?
I love it when homophobic people who just how ignorant they really are. Thanks for that Mike Frey!
Complete idiot……
Shame, Mike Frey, shame.
This is some very strange and intriguing fiction being spun around by this charlatan. Why is his conjecture being taken so seriously at this hearing? Are these people actually that stupid? Doesn’t he know that anyone can be a potential candidate to get this disease? His statement reeks of excessive pride, by his being a heterosexual, to the point of believing that his ludicrous conjecture, is the truth. Nothing could be further from it!
Where does this FOOL obtain his information? Does he have a learning disability? Stats show our Public Health Education programs do work. Is this MORON simply not listening? NO WONDER this Country is constantly in turmoil with IDIOTS like this running around……
Hmmmm. So by not letting gays get married, gays will stop having sex. Yeah right.
Omg
what an idiot
Is this MAN RETARDED, so AIDS can’t happen to straight people like me, REALLY O.o Yes this MAN is quite STUPID and PATHETIC!!
I’m a concerned human that thinks his ignorance will spread more ignorance and hate
This man studied sex between partners, one of whom is infected with the AIDS virus, but he failed to study marriage, one purpose of which is to provide people with a readily available sexual partner, so neither person needs to seek random people with whom to have sex. Now, we know that even married people have sex outside of marriage, but there tends to be less of a chance of a person seeking multiple sexual partners when the person is married than when the person is not. In short, this guy is a pervert who is obsessed with anal sex, and he needs to get his mind out of the gutter and, instead, “whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is pleasing, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence and if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things” (Phil. 4.8 ).
This man is a scientific Troglodyte….Although true the sperm cell does have a head with hyaluronic acid on it to burn through the egg….it also has a covering of Cholesterol on it to insure the cell does not burn through the Urethral walls…the chemical reaction occurs with the sperm cell when it connects with the egg of the female to begin working it’s way into the egg…This fool has no clue what the hell he is talking about….Can I even believe Minnesota’s best is this clown? What the hell is he talking about? I am outraged by this man’s ignorance…
He was dropped on his head…. it’s a shame he has reproduced!! :/
He really just needs to come out of the closet….and soon before he bursts.
I was watching this live and I almost shit myself. He said AIDS was originally caused by ejaculation into the rectum, then claimed they spread it to straights. WTF, stop making my state look bad you fringe ass holes
Gay Marriage will be legalized. The world is changing. They can’t stop it.
dafuq
What a STUPID Fuck! He’s allowed to procreate?
